325.86 is what percent of 335.45 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 335.45 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 335.45, so we can write it down as 100%=335.45.
4. We know, that x% equals 325.86 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=325.86.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=335.45
2) x%=325.86
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=335.45/325.86
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 325.86 is what percent of 335.45

100%/x%=335.45/325.86
(100/x)*x=(335.45/325.86)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0294298164856*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0294298164856) to get x
100/1.0294298164856=x
97.141153674169=x
x=97.141153674169

now we have:
